The document is an editorial from the Journal of Gay & Lesbian Social Services, now renamed Sexual and Gender Diversity in Social Services. The new editors-in-chief express their vision for the journal, which includes expanding the content to encompass a broader range of identities and perspectives. They emphasize the importance of addressing intersectionality, sociocultural diversity, and the impact of social contexts on individuals and communities. The editors also highlight the journal's new impact factor and the establishment of a new editorial board. They conclude by emphasizing the need for research that supports sexually and gender diverse populations and fills gaps in practice and policy. [Extracted from the article]
